Google has been getting really good news lately. First, the big killer Gemini was released a few days ago. The series of demo displays at the press conference were dazzling. In just one week, Google has announced some good news: the first version of Gemini Pro is now accessible through the Gemini API; the release of Imagen 2; and the launch of MedLM, a series of models fine-tuned for the medical industry.

A picture or text generates an infinite 3D world! The new work of Stanford Wu Jiajun’s team made netizens call it “unbelievable”

Stanford Wu Jiajun’s team created the AI version of “Alice in Wonderland” masterpiece! Infinitely coherent 3D scenes can be generated along the camera trajectory with just a picture or a piece of text. This work is called WonderJourney and was jointly created by Stanford Wu Jiajun’s team and Google Research.

The inference efficiency of large models has been improved by 3 times without loss, and the University of Waterloo, Peking University and other institutions released EAGLE

Large language models (LLM) are increasingly used in various fields. However, their text generation process is expensive and slow. This inefficiency is attributed to the algorithm of autoregressive decoding: the generation of each word (token) requires a forward pass, requiring access to an LLM with billions to hundreds of billions of parameters. This results in traditional autoregressive decoding being slower. Recently, the University of Waterloo, the Canadian Vector Institute, Peking University and other institutions jointly released EAGLE, which aims to improve the inference speed of large language models while ensuring a consistent distribution of model output text. This method extrapolates the second top-level feature vector of LLM, which can significantly improve the generation efficiency.

2023 has come to an end, and it’s time to look back at the year’s important scientific advances. On December 13, the famous scientific journal “Nature” just released the top ten people of 2023 (Nature’s 10), which aims to select individuals who have made important contributions to the scientific field and attracted attention to key issues. What is different from the past is that this year’s Nature’s 10 includes the large language model (LLM) ChatGPT, which is the first time a “computer program” has been selected. “Nature” stated that this approach aims to recognize the role played by artificial intelligence systems that imitate human language in the development and progress of science.

Why are you fighting for the “Queen of News”? AI will broadcast news 24/7

https://news.miracleplus.com/share_link/13248

“I’m going to be prime-time news seven days a week,” is a line from the recent hit TV series “News Queen.” The play tells the story of several anchors fighting openly and secretly within the TV station. Everyone is working hard to broadcast the prime time for seven consecutive days throughout the year. The audience couldn’t help but sigh that they really love going to work. However, as human beings, no matter how much they love to work, human anchors will eventually have to rest. At this point, the advantages of AI anchors are obvious. They can broadcast news 24/7, just like this demo released by the American media startup Channel 1. The release of this demo sparked heated discussions in the American press because none of the anchors featured in it were real people. Their images are lifelike, their voices are smooth, and even their lip movements are perfectly matched. Moreover, they can switch languages in one second and broadcast news in various languages, which is something that most human anchors cannot do.

Training efficiency increases 40 times! Open source pictures generate 3D models, Stable Zero123 is here

https://news.miracleplus.com/share_link/13250

On December 14, the famous generative AI open source platform Stability.ai was open sourced on the official website. Pictures generate high-quality 3D models – Stable Zero123. Stable Zero123 is developed based on the Zero123 model jointly open sourced by Toyota Research Institute and Columbia University in March this year. The model has been greatly optimized mainly by changing the rendering data set and fractional distillation. Not only does the generated 3D model perform better than Zero123, but the training efficiency is also increased by 40 times. It is worth mentioning that Stable Zero123 can be used in conjunction with Stability.ai’s latest open source high-precision image model SDXL, which is equivalent to a 3D model extension plug-in.
